Why not revive the moot congress
in Pulaski at once? Nothing we
have had was as interesting and in

women participate? They ought to
study politics and parliamentary
laws. They may be called on to
vote soon. Pulaski has some learn
ed women. Whist do you think of
revivipg The congress?

On Monday last Joseph Roberts,
or French Joe" as he is commonly
called, employed as teamster by
Frank Gooding, met with severe
accident. While coming down the
grade on the Smoky road, he was
caught between the wagon and the
bank of earth on one side and badly
crushed. One of his wagons also
passed over his right foot injuring
it considerably. AS speedily as
possible word was sent to town and
on Tuesday night he was brought
in by George Metzler who was sent
after him. DIR. Lewis was sum-
moned to attend the injured man,
and an examination showed that
no bones were broken. 1t was feared
that Roberts had sustained internal
injuries, but that does not seem
probable. At last accounts he was
resting comfortably but suffered
from soreness. 1t was narrow
escape from what might have proved
a fatal accident.

Weather Prophets.

The weather sharps are busy
demonstrating as to what kind Of
a winter is in store for us.
DR.. Pitts is emphatic in his de-
claratien that there is to be a dry
and extremely cold winter with but
little snow. He says "a years ex-
perience entities him to express his
opinion and he bases the correct.
ness of his prophecy on the shape
of the moon during the last two
months. He is willing to wager
that his lunar observations are cor
rect.
An entirely opposite view haf
been advanced by another weather
prophet who has a dog theory
On last Monday he noticed his
canine, an intelligent animal rush
ing furiously around gathering uI
ali the bones he could find and
burying them. This he says is in,
dicative of plenty of snow and hard
rustling for grub next winter.
